Just a quick comment: reading the article and also going to the Git2Go website I had a considerable amount of trouble understanding what this app does and why I would want it. It clones git repositories... where? To the phone? Why?

Not trying to be confrontational, just trying to be helpful ;-) If you could put some use cases front and center on your website and then obviously link to them from articles like this one, it would make it much easier for people like me to evaluate if I want to take a look at it.

Yes, it enables you to clone Git repositories to your phone for you to change files, make new branches and push and pull changes.

Possible use cases:
- make a quick edit to a pull request you made
- blog using Jekyll
- see what your team has been up to while you are on your way
- look at code where a computer is just not convenient to use, e.g. while commuting

Just to be sure we are not talking on iPhone only, as it is a universal app it runs on iPad and particularly the iPad pro too. The iPad pro focuses on producing rather than consuming and Git2Go fits perfectly into this scheme.

The 'expenses' part is not really fair. The developers need to eat, and they probably need to pay income tax. The expenses are probably much hire if you factor in that time is not free and that making money is also not free. I also don't need them mention the Apple iOS developer program membership fee, or the costs of macbooks.

That is true, we didn't list the equipment as it is not Git2Go specific. I already had the membership for the program because of other apps, my MacBook I had anyways and did not buy it for Git2Go. Income Tax applies that is true but is set for each person individually. This is still revenue, so everything we got paid by Apple not our income tax report. The only cost that was Git2Go specific was the GitHub membership.
